Answer by Bruce
Albert Schweitzer answered Strauss in The Quest of the Historical Jesus (1906), Strauss’s arguments “filled in the death-certificates of a whole series of explanations which, at first sight, have all the air of being alive, but are not really so.” He adds that there are two broad periods of academic research in the quest for the historical Jesus, namely, “the period before David Strauss and the period after David Strauss.”

One of the more controversial interpretations that Strauss introduced to the understanding of the historical Jesus, is his interpretation of Virgin Birth. In the Demythologization, Strauss’s response was reminiscent of the German Rationalist movement in Protestant theology. According to Strauss, Jesus’ Virgin Birth was added to the biography of Jesus, as a legend in order to honor him in the way that Gentiles most often honored their greatest historical figures. However, Strauss believed that greater honour would be given to Christ if the Virgin Birth were not present and Joseph recognised as the legitimate father of Christ.

Demythologization is clearly a dead-end because the historicity of the gospels in increasingly backed by scholarship. The NT accounts of Jesus exhibit many signs of historic credibility. The heirs of Strauss (e.g., the Jesus Seminar) are increasingly recognized as out of touch with critical scholarship in this area, and their idea of voting for passages that have historical support is increasingly recognized as ludicrous.

The Gospel According to Jesus: What Is Authentic Faith?

The first edition of The Gospel According to Jesus won wide acclaim in confronting the ‘easy-believism’ that has characterized some aspects of evangelical Christianity. Over the past 50 years, a handful of books have become true classics, revered world-wide for their crystal-clear presentation of the Gospel and lauded for their contribution to the Christian faith. These extraordinary books are read, re-read, and discussed in churches, Bible study groups, and homes everywhere. John MacArthur’s The Gospel According to Jesus is one of those books. In The Gospel According to Jesus, MacArthur tackles the idea of ‘easy believism,’ challenging Christians to re-evaluate their commitment to Christ by examining their fruits. MacArthur asks, ‘What doe

God’s Hotel: A Doctor, a Hospital, and a Pilgrimage to the Heart of Medicine

San Francisco’s Laguna Honda Hospital is the last almshouse in the country, a descendant of the Hôtel-Dieu (God’s hotel) that cared for the sick in the Middle Ages. Ballet dancers and rock musicians, professors and thieves-”anyone who had fallen, or, often, leapt, onto hard times” and needed extended medical care-ended up here. So did Victoria Sweet, who came for two months and stayed for twenty years.Laguna Honda, lower tech but human paced, gave Sweet the opportunity to practice a kind of attentive medicine that has almost vanished. Gradually, the place transformed the way she understood her work. Alongside the modern view of the body as a machine to be fixed, her extraordinary patients evoked an older idea, of the body as a ga

Did Jesus Exist?: The Historical Argument for Jesus of Nazareth

Large numbers of atheists, humanists, and conspiracy theorists are raising one of the most pressing questions in the history of religion: “Did Jesus exist at all?” Was he invented out of whole cloth for nefarious purposes by those seeking to control the masses? Or was Jesus such a shadowy figure—far removed from any credible historical evidence—that he bears no meaningful resemblance to the person described in the Bible? In Did Jesus Exist? historian and Bible expert Bart Ehrman confronts these questions, vigorously defends the historicity of Jesus, and provides a compelling portrait of the man from Nazareth. The Jesus you discover here may not be the Jesus you had hoped to meet—but he did exist, whether we like it or not.

Jehovah’s Witnesses, in 1914 the Watchtower made the claim of the “invisible presence of Jesus” I have had ?
Different Jehovah’s Witnesses tell me that Jesus “parousia” presence was here on earth and it was invisible, while others Witnesses have told me that he took up his Kingly duties and only turned his attention towards earth. Please, is there any Jehovah’s Witnesses that can clear this up and give me the correct answer, and respectfully show where I can get the answer?

Simply Jesus: A New Vision of Who He Was, What He Did, and Why He Matters

We have grown used to the battles over Jesus—whether he was human or divine, whether he could do miracles or just inspire them, whether he even existed. Much of the church defends tradition, while critics take shots at the institution and its beliefs. But what if these debates have masked the real story of Jesus? What if even Jesus’s defenders have been so blinded by their focus on defending the church’s traditions that they have failed to grapple with what the New Testament really teaches?Bible scholar, Anglican bishop, and bestselling author N. T. Wright summarizes a lifetime of study of Jesus and the New Testament in order to present for a general audience who Jesus was and is. In Simply Jesus, we are invited to hear one of our lea
